Ongoing - Come and create your own personal retreat. At Rowe, the soul-sustaining beauty of creation abounds. Come walk in our enchanted forest, marvel at the sights and sounds of the waterfall, and delight in tranquility by our old mill pond. During our conference season, most weekdays our guestrooms are available and offer quiet and solitude. Take a break from your busy life and reconnect with your soul. Come alone, bring a friend, or have a family reunion. |
| Make your own schedule. There are no pre-set mealtimes so you can sleep late or get up at dawn and watch the sunrise. Write, read, walk the labyrinth, enjoy the sauna, take a long afternoon nap, walk around the lake or climb Adams Mountain. Help yourself from the Rowe kitchen for breakfast and lunch and join the staff for an evening meal. Watch the sunset from the porch swing at the Farmhouse. Marvel at the awesome night sky from the clear view at the Orchard or simply do nothing at all. |

Eventually, one returns to the turbulent world again, as all pilgrims do, infused with fresh energy,courage, and love. So create your own retreat. You deserve it! |

While You are Here
Would you like the opportunity to explore the rich potential for a spirit-soul relationship with horses? Horses, with their power, grace, sensitivity, and beauty, are particularly adept at teaching us about authenticity, connection, and presence. This is not an experience just for “horse people.” It is an invitation for anyone who would like to join in a full-hearted exploration of the edges of consciousness. In the presence of these exceptional creatures, we have the potential to deepen our connection with spirit, with the earth, and with ourselves. During the days while you are here, join with the horses at a nearby farm, not to ride, but through enhanced observation, feeling, and listening, to explore relationship beyond our ordinary awareness. Our work will be respectful, simple, and deep. You will learn much about yourself in the process.
